Yohani 16
1 “Nivajovili malovi genaga, muni mkoto kuleka kusadika.
“I have told you these things so that you will not fall away.
2 Vandu yati vakuvavinga nyenye munyumba za kukonganekela Vayawudi. Kangi lukumbi lubwela mundu yoyoha mweakuvakoma nyenye yati iholalela akumhengela Chapanga.
They will put you out of the synagogues. In fact, a time is coming when anyone who kills you will think he is offering a service to God.
3 Mambu genago yati vakuvakitila ndava vangammanya Dadi, wala nene.
They will do these things because they have not known the Father or Me.
4 Hinu, nivajovili mambu ago muni lukumbi lwenulo paluhikayi mkoto kukosiwa kuvya navajovili.” “Hinu, navajovili lepi mambu genaga tangia pakutumbula ndava navili pamonga na nyenye.
But I have told you these things so that when their hour comes, you will remember that I told you about them. I did not tell you these things from the beginning, because I was with you.
5 Nambu hinu nikumhambila mweanitumili yula, kawaka hati mmonga winu mweakunikota ‘Wihamba koki?’
Now, however, I am going to Him who sent Me; yet none of you asks Me, ‘Where are You going?’
6 Ndava ya mambu genivajovili mitima yinu yivii ngolongondi neju.
Instead, your hearts are filled with sorrow because I have told you these things.
7 Nambu nene nikuvajovela uchakaka, mbanga yinu nene nihamba, muni ngati nangahamba mtangatila nakubwela kwinu. Nambu nakahambayi, ndi, nikumtuma kwinu.
But I tell you the truth, it is for your benefit that I am going away. Unless I go away, the Advocate will not come to you; but if I go, I will send Him to you.
8 Mwene peibwela yati akuvalangisa vandu va mulima kuvya vaumanyili lepi uchakaka kuvala kumbudila Chapanga, na kuyidakiliwa palongolo ya Chapanga na kuhamuliwa na Chapanga.
And when He comes, He will convict the world in regard to sin and righteousness and judgment:
9 Vaumanyi lepi uchakaka kumvala kumbudila Chapanga muni vanisadiki lepi nene.
in regard to sin, because they do not believe in Me;
10 Vaumanyili lepi uchakaka ndava ya vandu kuyidakiliwa palongolo ya Chapanga, muni nihamba kwa Dadi, na nyenye nakuniwona kavili.
in regard to righteousness, because I am going to the Father and you will no longer see Me;
11 Vaumanyili lepi uchakaka kumvala Chapanga kuvahamula vandu, muni mkulu wa mulima uwu amali kuhamuliwa.”
and in regard to judgment, because the prince of this world has been condemned.
12 “Nakona nivii nagu gamahele gakuvajovela, ndi kwa hinu muhotola lepi kugakamula goha.
I still have much to tell you, but you cannot yet bear to hear it.
13 Nambu peibwela mwene Mpungu Msopi mweakuvajovela uchakaka ndava ya Chapanga, yati akuvalongosa muuchakaka woha. Yati ijova lepi kwa uhotola waki mwene, nambu yati ijova geagayuwini kuhuma kwa Dadi na kuvajovela gegibwela.
However, when the Spirit of truth comes, He will guide you into all truth. For He will not speak on His own, but He will speak what He hears, and He will declare to you what is to come.
14 Mwene yati akunipela ukulu nene ndava muni yati akuvamanyisa gegihuma kwa nene gala.
He will glorify Me by taking from what is Mine and disclosing it to you.
15 Goha geavinagu Dadi ndi ga nene, ndi nijova kuvya Mpungu Msopi mwenuyo yati akuvajovela gegihuma kwa nene.”
Everything that belongs to the Father is Mine. That is why I said that the Spirit will take from what is Mine and disclose it to you.
16 “Lusigalili lukumbi luhupi nyenye nakuniwona, na kangi lukumbi luhupi kavili yati mukuniwona!”
In a little while you will see Me no more, and then after a little while you will see Me.”
17 Vawuliwa vaki vangi vakakotana, “Mana yaki kyani? Peakutijovela, lwakona lukumbi luhupi nakumuwona na kavili lukumbi luhupi yati mukuniwona na kangi ijova ndava muni nihamba kwa Dadi!”
Then some of His disciples asked one another, “Why is He telling us, ‘In a little while you will not see Me, and then after a little while you will see Me’ and ‘Because I am going to the Father’?”
18 Hinu vakavya mkukotana, “Lilovi lenili leijova, lusigalili lukumbi luhupi ndi kyani? Timanyi lepi ijova kyani.”
They kept asking, “Why is He saying, ‘a little while’? We do not understand what He is saying.”
19 Yesu amanyili kuvya vigana kumkota, mwene akavajovela, wu, mkotana ndava ya gala genavajovili. Lwakona lukumbi luhupi na nyenye nakuniwona, na kangi lukumbi luhupi yati mukuniwona kavili?
Aware that they wanted to question Him, Jesus said to them, “Are you asking one another why I said, ‘In a little while you will not see Me, and then after a little while you will see Me’?
20 Chakaka nikuvajovela, nyenye yati muvemba na kulola mvinisu mumtima winu, nambu vandu va mulima yati viheka. Mwalavya ngolongondi nambu ngolongondi yati ying'anamuka na kuvya luheku.
Truly, truly, I tell you, you will weep and wail while the world rejoices. You will grieve, but your grief will turn to joy.
21 Mdala peiveleka ivya ngolongondi ndava lukumbi lwa mvinisu luhikili, nambu akamala kuveleka mwana ikosiwa mvinisu wula, ndava ya luheku lwa mwana avelekiwi pamulima.
A woman has pain in childbirth because her time has come; but when she brings forth her child, she forgets her anguish because of her joy that a child has been born into the world.
22 Mewawa nyenye mwava ngolongondi hinu, nambu nalavabwelela kavili, na nyenye luheku yati lumema mu mitima yinu kawaka mundu mweiwusa luheku lwinu.
So also you have sorrow now, but I will see you again and your hearts will rejoice, and no one will take away your joy.
23 Ligono lenilo nakuniyupa chochoha. Chakaka nikuvajovela, chindu chochoha chemukumuyupa Dadi kwa liina langu yati akuvapela.
In that day you will no longer ask Me anything. Truly, truly, I tell you, whatever you ask the Father in My name, He will give you.
24 Mbaka hinu nakumuyupa chochoha kwa liina langu. Myupa na nyenye yati mwipewa, muni luheku lwinu lutimila.
Until now you have not asked for anything in My name. Ask and you will receive, so that your joy may be complete.
25 “Nivajovili mambu genago kwa luhumu. Nambu lukumbi lubwela penapo nakujova kavili kwa luhumu, ndi nikuvajovela hotohoto kumvala Dadi,
I have spoken these things to you in figures of speech. An hour is coming when I will no longer speak to you this way, but will tell you plainly about the Father.
26 ligono ilo, yati muyupa kwa liina langu, amala nikuvajovela lepi kuvya yati niyupa kwa Dadi ndava yinu,
In that day you will ask in My name. I am not saying that I will ask the Father on your behalf.
27 Ndava muni Dadi mwene akuvagana. Akuvagana ndava nyenye mukunigana nene na kunisadika, kuvya nihumili kwa Dadi.
For the Father Himself loves you, because you have loved Me and have believed that I came from God.
28 Nene nihumili kwa Dadi, nikabwela pamulima apa, kavili nikuuleka mulima na kuwuya kwa Dadi.”
I came from the Father and entered the world. In turn, I will leave the world and go to the Father.”
29 Vawuliwa vaki vakamjovela, “Lola! Hinu ulongela hotohoto, changali kujova kwa miluhumu.
His disciples said, “See, now You are speaking plainly and without figures of speech.
30 Hinu timanyili kuvya veve ukugamanya mambu goha, amala kawaka ndava ya mundu kukota chindu, ndi tisadika kuvya wahumili kwa Chapanga.”
Now we understand that You know all things and that You have no need for anyone to question You. Because of this, we believe that You came from God.”
31 Yesu akavayangula, “Wu, hinu mwisadika?
“Do you finally believe?” Jesus replied.
32 Nambu lukumbi luhika, kangi lumali kuhika, ndi mwavoha nyenye yati mupechengana kila mmonga kwaki, na kunileka namwene. Nambu nene nakuvya namwene, ndava muni Dadi avi pamonga na nene.
“Look, an hour is coming and has already come when you will be scattered, each to his own home, and you will leave Me all alone. Yet I am not alone, because the Father is with Me.
33 Nivajovili mambu genaga, muni mvya na uteke mukuwungana na nene. Pamulima yati mwipata mang'ahiso, nambu mkangamala mumitima! Nene niuhotwili mulima!”
I have told you these things so that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take courage; I have overcome the world!”
